Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of small household appliances, in particular to a portable folding iron. Background Art

[0002] During long-distance travel, people often choose to carry some small electrical appliances to ensure comfort during the trip, such as hair dryers or small irons, etc. However, the convenience of carrying such small appliances is the first consideration for users. Common small irons on the market include steam irons and metal irons. Metal irons are more dangerous than steam irons during use, and the overall use effect of metal irons is not as good as steam irons. Therefore, people tend to carry steam irons during travel. However, due to the limited volume of the overall water tank, the water tank capacity of such irons is usually between 100 ml and 200 ml. With limited volume and low efficiency, water needs to be added repeatedly during use. When the storage capacity of the water tank increases, the overall volume will become larger, and the portability will be greatly reduced. The efficiency and portability cannot be optimized, and the overall use effect is limited. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is that, in view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, a portable folding iron is provided.

[0004] To achieve its purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] A portable folding iron comprises a shell, wherein the shell is provided with a hinged handle, a fixedly mounted heating element is provided inside the shell, a fixedly mounted auxiliary water tank is provided on a side of the heating element close to the handle, the heating element and the auxiliary water tank are both flat, a water inlet pipe connected to the auxiliary water tank is provided on the shell, a control valve is provided on the water inlet pipe, a water inlet is provided at the end of the water inlet pipe away from the auxiliary water tank, the diameter range of the water inlet is 24 mm-38 mm, and the water inlet is provided with an internal thread.

[0006] Preferably, a fixedly mounted temperature controller is provided inside the housing, a fixedly mounted temperature control knob is provided on the housing, the temperature control knob is electrically connected to the temperature controller, and the temperature controller is electrically connected to the heating element.

[0007] Preferably, there are two handles, and a thermally conductive bottom plate is provided on a side of the shell away from the handles and a side of the heating element away from the auxiliary water tank, and a plurality of air holes arranged in an array are provided on the bottom plate.

[0008] Beneficial effects of the utility model:

[0009] The diameter of the water inlet ranges from 24mm to 38mm, which is suitable for the mouth diameters of most mineral water bottles on the market. The water inlet is provided with an internal thread, which can be directly connected with the thread of the mineral water bottle on the market to fix the water source. Due to the limited capacity of the auxiliary water tank, the external water source avoids the device from repeated water adding actions; the articulated handle can ensure the convenience of carrying the device as a whole, the overall occupied area is smaller, and the complicated connection structure and large-volume water tank are avoided, making the overall device lighter.

[0022] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments; in the following description, specific details such as specific configurations and components are provided only to help fully understand the embodiments of the present invention. Therefore, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention. In addition, for the sake of clarity and brevity, the description of known functions and structures is omitted.

[0023] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features thereof may be combined with each other.

[0024] like Figure 1-Figure 3 The portable folding iron provided by the present embodiment is shown, comprising a shell 1, a hinged handle 2 is provided on the shell 1, the number of the handles 2 is two, the handle 2 can be rotated to unfold and fold relative to the shell 1, a handle groove is provided on the shell 1, when the handle 2 is in the folded state, the handle 2 is located in the handle groove, when the handle 2 is in the unfolded state, the handle 2 rotates relative to the shell 1 and disengages from the handle groove, the hinged handle 2 can ensure the convenience of carrying the device as a whole, and the overall occupied area is smaller, a fixedly installed heating element 3 is provided inside the shell 1, the heating element 3 can be a heating plate or a heating wire, a fixedly installed auxiliary water tank 4 is provided above the heating element 3 near the handle 2, the heating element 3 and the auxiliary water tank 4 are both flat, so as to ensure the heating area and heating efficiency of the device as a whole, a fixedly installed water inlet pipe 5 is provided on the shell 1 and connected to the auxiliary water tank 4, so as to avoid redundant connection structures and large-volume water tanks, and the whole The body is lighter, a control valve 51 is provided on the water inlet pipe 5 to ensure the uniform speed and controllability of the water discharge speed, a water inlet 52 is provided at the top of the water inlet pipe 5 away from the auxiliary water tank 4, the caliber range of the water inlet 52 is 24mm-38mm, and an internal thread is provided at the water inlet 52. The caliber of the water inlet 52 is suitable for the bottle mouth caliber of most common mineral water bottles on the market, and the mineral water bottle with a built-in water source can be fixed on the device through the threaded connection between the water inlet 52 and the bottle mouth of the mineral water bottle. For travel or take-away use, it is unnecessary to carry special water supply equipment. At the same time, the external water source reduces the overall storage volume of the device. Mineral water bottles are common in daily travel drinking water needs, and the external water source device (mineral water bottle) is easy to obtain. While solving the drinking water needs, the device can also contain and supply the external water source, and the overall use has strong flexibility and simplicity.
